I've been distracted

I really did plan to get busy on that oil painting. It was the perfect time to delve into that kind of thing (slow, time consuming, measured). I had what was essentially a free month: (post-grad school graduating, pre-back-to-work life) and intended to really dive in, but... I got distracted. First with a business trip to Vermont earlier in June (business for A, and apparently beer drinking and drawing weird little faces in watercolor for me.)

Then I got distracted by another week long trip, this time to Virginia to visit my folks. A mid-process oil painting is not really travel friendly, so instead I spent time doing more fast, funny little watercolors of bottle caps and logs and things lying around.
